cred and riots On foot, and The
State got down to business she
found her physical power lay in her
drilled and disciplined men, and
cold steel and Gaitl'hg gums. This
sentiment aroused the Coionel's en-
thusiasm still more, and he thought
he had found leader for Canada's
conquest, so in his response TO THE
Pen and Sword he publicly offered
his services to the Guard to go
along with any expedition. and put
he deeds of hcroism on the immor-
'al pages of history. He selected

THE SONG THE SIRENS SANG

In sea caves dark and rocks where hides
The restless wind that haunts the sea,
Where murmuring waves and moaning tides
Chant their unceasing melody;
In meadows bright with fadeless spring,
Where dead mems bones the light dedle,
What were the songs they used to sing,
The sirens of the sunny isle?
Soft breathed aud tender, sweet and low,
Across the waters dark and wild,
The wanderer heard their numbers flow,
And all his soul their charms beguiled.
Swift through the breakers snowy foam,
He drove his bark with painting breath,
Forgetting wife and child at home,
While sirens sang him to his death.
We know their songs-they had but one
Odysseus heard the fateful thing;
pdSmadpesss siezed Laertes' son,
9Whos heard rsThe Flowers that Bloom in
w + 1 Spang.|
And still unchanged in air or word,
The sirens sing, with tireless breath,
The same old song Ulysses heard,
: And withLit still sing men to death.
